How Can I Close the browser using asp.net button

You would need to wire the click event to a javascript window.Close() call.

<asp:Button id="btnClose" runat="server"></asp:Button>

Page_Load event

btnClose.Attributes.Add("onclick", "window.close();")

How Can I Close the browser using asp.net button

This is unexpected behavior on the part of the user. You have to ask yourself why do you want this to happen? Is it needed? Also, some browsers may even pop up an error to the user telling them something is trying to close the browser.

If you have though of all that, then I can tell you that the simplest way to do this is with javascript.

window.close()
 

That code will close the window, and if you put it within a button, it will do the job. Its not C# or VB .Net though. I do not think it is even possible in an unscripted language.

Hi sri9440071311,
Welcome to TSDN! I hope you like it here :)

You can't use asp to close a window but you can use JavaScript.
So what you need to do is add this little bit of JavaScript code to the page with your button on it.

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
     function CloseWindow()
     {
          window.Close();
     }
-->
</script>
 

See this thread for instructions on how to add JavaScript code to your page.

Then in your server side code, in your Page_Load method you want to add:
(code in vb)

 BTN_Close.Attributes.Add("OnClick", "CloseWindow();")
 

Cheers!

I don't know why I always do things the hard way.

Nice answer Nathan!
